My Stash – Some more Kalamkari Patches
Kalamkari patches are always my favourite. Though these give ethnic look to the dress or saree, keep the design modern too. I have designed many sarees using Kalamkari patches and borders. In some I have used Kalamkari fabrics too. Because of my love towards Kalamkari, I have many Kalamkari patches and fabric in my stash. Few days ago I had shared about Peacock Kalamkari patches in my stash. In this post sharing Kalamkari patches with God and Goddess designs, like Krishna , Rama etc.
Kalamkari patch showing Marriage occasion of Rama and Seeta:
The below one depicts the marriage occasion of Shree Rama and Seeta. This one is very unique one. I remember I had bought this from an exhibition.
I haven’t used it. I am planning to frame it.

Being fan and devotee of Shree Krishna, how I can miss having Kalmkari patches about Shree Krishna. Below are patches with Shree Krishna and Radha design.

Closer view of the big design
This has one big design and few smaller design. This also I had bough in an exhibition. I though to make a saree, the number of small motifs won’t be sufficient. So I bought similar motifs in another exhibition. But this is darker on shade.

Durga design in Kalamkari patches:
Maa Durga design in Kalamkari has become very famous. It is always in trend. I have few hand painted Kalamkari patches in this design.
